Meetings and Changes for 2011-2012The Student Technology Fee was established at Downstate in 1999. As one of the requirements of the legislation creating the fee an Annual Report is required. The Student Technology Fee Committee has complied with this requirement every year and posts the report on a number of institutional websites.

The Student Technology Fee Committee had one meeting, December 16, 2010 during which it voted to change the way it was organized and the allocation of funds was accomplished (see below for more information). Therefore there were two Student Technology Fee Committees in 2010/11, the first one, which lasted until December 16, 2010, and the second one which is currently in place (both these committee memberships are named in this report)

This Annual Report will be the first for the new procedure in allocating funds for student technology projects identified by the colleges or support services committees.

Summary of ExpendituresThe Student Technology Fee contributed $382,000 for services in 20010/11. Since the beginning of the fee, in 1999, it has contributed over $3,280,000 and generated an additional $1,100,000 worth of technology, from other sources, in service to our students.

2011/12 Final Student technology Committee MembersAfter the December 16, 2010 meeting the colleges formed their own Tech Fee Committees and the Support Services formed theirs based on the budget allocation formula. The following Student Technology Fee Committee mem-bers form the group that reviews and advices the committees formed by the colleges and support services.

Student technology Committee Structure and processMr. Greg Conyers and Mr. Jeff Putnam crafted the following policy and procedure statement which was approved by the Student Technology Fee Committee for implementation:

n During the summer of 2010, the student technology fee committee, agreed to a new process of allocating student technology fee revenue. This new method placed the planning process in the hands of the col-leges and support services, instead of the round the table approach of previous years. The new process was meant to insure proposed projects fit into the plans of the colleges and support services in their efforts to improve information and educational technology services to students.

College CommitteesThe Dean of each college is required to appoint a tech fee committee for their respective school or service and as a matter of institutional policy in-clude at least 2 student representatives. The membership of the committee must be provided to the Chair of the Oversight Committee at the beginning of the academic year (date to be determined by the Oversight Committee Chair). This committee would be charged with spending the funds allocated to the respective college. Funds not spent in a particular year will be rolled over to the next academic year. Each College would manage their own acquisitions through accounts allocated to the college under the student tech fee ac-count. In the event that a college does not convene a committee after written request by the oversight committee, the oversight committee may redis-tribute the funds assigned to that committee equally to the remaining local college based committees.4

At the end of each academic year, each College Committee will prepare an end of year report on their projects, expenditures, and future plans which will be delivered to the chair of the Technology Fee Oversight Committee for inclusion in the annual report.

Support Service RepresentativesEach support service will have one representative with a standby. The sup-port service areas include the Library, Academic Computing, Audio Visual and the Advanced Learning Resource Center. The assignment of representative(s) from each area must be provided to the Chair of the Oversight Committee at the beginning of the academic year.

At the end of each academic year, each Support Service will prepare an end of year report on their projects, expenditures, and future plans which will be delivered to the chair of the Technology Fee Oversight Committee for inclu-sion in the annual report.

Technology Fee Oversight CommitteeThe oversight committee is to be comprised of the chairs of the College Committees, the Support Service Representatives (as identified above), and a representative of the Division of Student Affairs. The charge of this commit-tee is:1. To provide the subcommittees with general guidance as to what purchas-

es may be made according to statute with technology fee funds2. To audit purchases made by the subcommittees restricted to ensure

compliance with the relevant technology fee statutes as follows:a. A description of the purchase approved by a subcommittee will be

submitted via email to the members of the oversight committeeb. If there is no objection within 4 business days, the requisition will be

co-signed by the chair of the Oversight Committee at which time the purchase can proceed.

c. In the event that an audit issue is raised, the Chair of the oversight committee will convene the oversight committee to review the issue and make a recommendation.

3. To allow a venue for proposing collaboration amongst colleges and sup-port groups for large projects as follows:a. If a subcommittee is interested in a larger collaboration, the chair will

send an email to the oversight committee to determine interest from the other members.

4. To make adjustments to distribution and/or target of allocations (Approval by 7 of the 10 committee members required)

5. Convene a yearly meeting to review process and solicit general student feedback as follows:a. At the beginning of each academic year, the oversight committee

will convene a meeting with a quorum of the student representatives from each college. The agenda for this meeting will be to review and approve the projected allocations for each college / support service and to solicit suggestions for Center-wide projects and/or support service expenditures.

6. Each year, the Chair of the Technology Fee Oversight Committee shall prepare an Annual Report, which includes information from each of the College-based subcommittees and each support service, to be posted on the institutional web site.

1. Review of budget and revised figuresa. Aleida met with Tanya McPherson to review the CHRP Student

Technology Fee balance since the Centerwide figures did not match the actual CHRP balance. The discrepancy was due to the fact that the cost of the Medical Informatics AccessNET PACS training system, $6800, had already been deducted even though the system was never purchased.

2. ALRC allocation $15,881.25a. The College of Medicine did not agree to share the cost of the CAE

Healthcare’s Vimedix Ultrasound Simulator.b. The committee members present voted to reallocate the funds as

follows:i. Fund the PT equipment during this fiscal yearii. The remaining balance will be used to supplement the ECT pur-

chase of the CHRP classrooms AV equipment and podiums.3. The meeting time will be changed to 5-6:30 pm for the 2012-2013 aca-

demic year.4. Peter Hultberg will inform the CHRP Council that another student mem-

ber of the committee will be needed since Daphne Zelaya is graduating.5. The Medical Informatics revised proposal was reviewed. Since the

campus does not support IBM computers, it was recommended that an 10

School of Public Health School of Public Health Student Technology Fee Committee 2011-2012 Academic Year ReportFaculty representatives Drs. Amstislavski, Ehlke, and Grice-Sheff,Student representatives Chris Donnelly, and Ariel Matthews present

The first meeting of the 2011/12 student tech fee committee transpiredbetween approximately 1 and 1:40PM, Monday, November 14, 2011The second took place on March 7, 2012, when the approval process for the items in the first meeting went forward.

The committee first discussed its general mission and goals, and strove to come up with an initial plan forward. The shortcomings of the approach em-ployed last year were acknowledged, and a means of addressing these weak-nesses developed. By the end of last academic year, there was still a lack of consensus amongst student body and faculty as to the apportioning of the tech fee monies for that year, and the committee chair failed to put forward a strong committee position. As a result, the tech fee money from last year was simply carried over into this year. The present committee thus decided to solicit tech requests from students and faculty alike early in the process, and then formulate a strong committee position/’wish list’,to be forwarded on to the Downstate (overarching) committee.

The chair solicited initial tech requests from members of the committee. Dr. Amstislavski, citing previous requests from students, voiced the need for hand-held GPS units, capable of writing data to a geographic database. He also noted the usefulness of Google Earth Professional when it came to publishing map data. On behalf of the student body, Mr. Donnelly and Ms. Matthews cited the need for more SAS (software) licenses, as well as ad-ditional licenses for a similar statistical program, SPSS. It is thought these needs could be fulfilled internally, by contacting the campus license-holders for said programs, and may not necessarily need to come out of the tech fee balance. It was thus agreed to contact these license representatives. A similar approach was recommended when it came to Dr. Grice-Sheff’s inquiry re: further licenses for the program plug-in Adobe Presenter. If internal resources within the realm of these software programs is found to be insuf-ficient, provision will be made within the context of the tech fee.

A timeline was then developed that will govern future committee action. Notices will be sent to faculty and students soliciting technology requests, with a deadline of the end of February. A second meeting of the tech fee committee will then be called for early March, with all committee action wrapped up by April (and SPH recommendation sent off to the overarching Downstate committee for approval).

March 7, 2012 meeting minutesThe minutes from the 11/14 (first semester) meeting were approved.An updated expense report was distributed to committee members, showing a total in excess of $15,000. This is comprised of last year’s total of $8000, and a current year allocation of around $7700.

The technology items requested at the previous meeting were reviewed. These requests included three hand-held GPS units (around $300 each/$900 total), one site license for Google Earth Professional ($400), additional site licenses for SAS and SPSS statistical software, as well as one

additional license for Adobe Presenter. The chair will contact Jim Neill and James Wheedon to see if there are site licenses available for SAS and SPSS through Downstate. Failing that, we will move on to more precise pricing of these items and purchase through the technology fee fund.

The floor was then opened to additional technology requests. Student rep-resentative Chris Donnelly indicated a request had been made for a wireless router, to be installed in the SPH Lounge. He also mentioned the need of one additional desktop computer for the Lounge. The committee decided to inquire as to the status of the present router in the room, and Dorine is cur-rently inquiring as to its proper functioning with Information Services. If that router can be brought into working order, no further action will be necessary on that front. Student representatives did stress that an additional desktop computer (and working router, for laptop users) would facilitate studying in that space. Dr. Grice-Sheff also indicated that a router would be useful in the fifth floor conference room, where the Internet signal is notoriously weak.

As there is likely to be considerable funds left over even after the above items are considered, the committee decided to send one additional remind-er out to department chairs, and the student representatives opted to do the same for the student community. Within the next two weeks, the committee will continue to take requests. Members will also dedicate further research to pricing the items currently under consideration. A final committee vote on technology requests will be taken by the end of the month, with decisions sent on to the campus-wide technology fee committee at that time.

3. What, if anything, is currently available at SUNY Downstate Medical Center?• There is an old Doppler phantom, similar to the Gammex 1425A LE,

which has been sitting in our scanning lab since I was a student. It didn’t work then and still does not function now.

4. What would this bring in terms of functionality or in terms of continued functionality?• The incorporation of real time imaging with the theoretical knowledge

gained from Ultrasound physics will make it easier for the students to understand the abstract concepts of ultrasound.

• As a manager/sonographer we are required to set up and/or main-tain a Quality Assurance program for all ultrasound equipments in the department. Incorporating the Phantom into our ultrasound phys-ics curriculum will benefit our graduates in the future.

5. Does it result in cross-collaboration between departments in CHRP?• Unfortunately not. It is specific to ultrasound equipment evaluation

and training sonographers.
